I’ll stop talking about the body bugg some day, but I’m still figuring things out. I really like having goals that I can aim for and exceed. Monday night I got home late from work and was STARVING so I did not want to work out, I wanted to EAT.
I ate dinner and started reading blogs when I saw that I had more calories to burn to reach my target. So, I decided to jump on the treadmill to get some more calories burned. I like the fact that my goals are concrete and reachable. It’s not like I need to do four miles, I just need to get a certain number of calories burned and steps in/day.
I was much better with my food today. Breakfast started with a chia bagel. The seeds are stuck in my teeth ALL DAY. Oh well. Still worth it.
The morning went by quickly and I discovered that I really like earl grey latte’s. Who knew! Yum. We didn’t have leftovers for lunch so I had half a PB&J
I followed that with some raisins
A tangerine
and a 100 calorie pack of chex mix.
Dinner was paprika spiced pork chops with spinach. The chop was great but the spinach was not. Dan thinks it was too much lemon juice.
Overall a decent day. Once I finish this I’m going to get back on the treadmill to get a few more calories burned before bedtime!
What are your short term goals that keep you motivated?
